Chiang Zhongzheng announced that he would move the capital to Chongqing, and Chongqing would serve as a wartime companion and at the same time strongly declared that he would continue to resist the war. This is somewhat consistent with history.

Historically, after the defeat in the Battle of Songhu, Jiang Zhongzheng also chose to announce the relocation of the capital to Chongqing. However, most of the organs of the Nanjing government are set up in Wuhan to continue to work, which is to facilitate the coordination and command of all parties.

Subsequently, on 8 October, Lin Sen, chairman of the Nanjing State Government, led a group of officials to Chongqing, but most of the rest of the organs remained in Wuhan. However, until the fall of Nanjing, the national government still maintained Nanjing as the national capital.

Seeing the reports coming from everywhere, Tu Qianjun couldn't help but sigh. Then he pondered for a while and said to Liu Yunjiao: "Call the Longyun Department to strengthen the defense." At the same time, let Xikang's troops prepare, I estimate that it won't be long before Chapter 714 will hit them. ”

As he spoke, Tu Qianjun sighed. Rubbing his eyebrows, there was no doubt that Jiang Zhongzheng thought that this time would hit the ambitions of the Japanese, but in fact it gave the Japanese greater confidence.

Tens of thousands of people were lost in the battle, but with only 300,000 troops, they completed the feat of fighting against nearly 700,000 squadrons! The troop strength ratio is more than doubled, and even more than 40,000 people killed and wounded more than 100,000 troops!

Do you think Japan will think that it is at a loss?! No! They will think that if they only need to intensify their attacks, then they can take down the whole of China!

In fact, this attack was tantamount to a Japanese test of Nanjing. Although he easily occupied half of Fujian and Guangdong in the first few times, he did not fight with the elite troops in Nanjing.

But now it seems that Nanjing's elite troops are nothing more than that.

"Your Royal Highness, I think we can expand our offensive even further! The battle of Shanghai proved that even the gathering of the whole country in Nanjing could not stop the attack of our imperial troops! ”

At this time, in the conference room of the Japanese Military Headquarters in Tokyo, General Matsui Ishone, commander of the Japanese Shanghai Dispatch Army, excitedly said to the rest of the people: "Your Highness! Now is the best time for our Great Japanese Empire to completely change the situation and occupy China! As long as the tiger is temporarily tied to the three eastern provinces, and after we completely occupy the pass, we can even expand the territory of the empire to Siberia! ”

Prince Kanin Palace trembled with excitement when he heard this, but then he calmed down and said in a deep voice to General Umezu Mijiro, the commander of the Korean garrison, who had come to the meeting.

"Umezu-kun! For that tiger. Are you sure?! "General Umezu Mijiro couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, how can he be sure?! The current situation is that the Wehrmacht is basically pressing North Korea to fight!

If it weren't for the fact that those permanent fortifications were connected to each other and could be continuously replenished from the rear, perhaps the 38th parallel would have been breached long ago. But even so, the Japanese troops in Korea did not have a good time.

The IDF has never stopped attacking and bombing North Korea. Even the whole of Korea has now become a training ground for the Wehrmacht Air Force! Constantly their bombers crossed the line of defense and carried out targeted attacks on various facilities under the cover of fighters.

In the North Korean troops, the rotation of bombing units can be clearly felt. There are also fighter units, basically the Japanese Air Force in Korea is finished, and air supremacy now belongs to the Wehrmacht.

The navy basically supported the operation in Shanghai, and did not return to the DPRK at all. But fortunately, the defensive line can still be held, as long as the Wehrmacht troops do not come over. Then the front can still be defended.

"Your Royal Highness, we are not in a good situation right now." But seeing General Umezu Mijiro, he smiled bitterly and said: "Although the tiger did not launch a more fierce attack, the air raids continued. Having lost air superiority, now we have difficulties in resupplying the front. ”

"It's no problem to defend the front, but I really can't guarantee how long I can defend. On the one hand, it is difficult for us to transport our supplies under air raids, and on the other hand, the North Korean army of Kim Jiu is constantly trying to attack the position......"

The more Xianyuan Gong listened, the more ugly his face became! Although he knew that the situation in North Korea was not good now, he did not expect that the situation would be so bad! Even more than he could have imagined!

"Red deer! Mitsubishi's bunch of idiots. Why hasn't a new fighter been developed yet?! "Before General Umezu Mijiro finished speaking, the Kanin Palace roared!

"These bastards! Don't you know that the Empire now needs stronger fighters to escort it?! A bunch of bastards! "Xianyuan Gong scolded fiercely! It is worthless to scold Mitsubishi and other chaebols.

In fact, the rest of the army generals are not full of birds, and they have lost their troops and generals after fighting so hard in Korea. But the navy's planes hit Shanghai so smoothly. So much so that now the Navy has seen the Army's constant sarcasm.

If it weren't for the naval artillery and aircraft support, the army would not have been able to fight in Shanghai. How can this make the army who has always looked down on the "horse manure" of the navy embarrassed?!

They are holding their breath and want to give the Navy a good look! Naturally, this kind of good-looking can not be a fight, the idea of the army is to have more advanced fighters and have a big battle without the need for naval support!

It proves that without his navy, the army can still win!

However, what angered the Army the most was that the Navy was asking for a larger budget to build more warships! You know, that's all there is to it. More navy means that the army's military spending will fall.

But the army couldn't say anything, and this time the navy did a very good job. First of all, the marines withstood the attack of more than 30,000 people from the Nanjing side with thousands of men. Subsequently, the continuous support of naval artillery eventually led to the appearance of nearly 300 fighters and bombers on the battlefield.

This directly laid the foundation for the victory of the Shanghai Campaign, so although the army was very unconvinced, it was helpless to pay more for the navy.

"I will urge Mitsubishi to come up with a plan as soon as possible, and I will urge Nakajima too!" After scolding for a while, Kanyuan Palace said in a deep voice to General Umezu Mijiro with a cold face.

"But you have to make sure that the Korean front is not lost, at least for the time being, because the security of the empire itself is at stake. This is also what His Majesty cares about! ”

As he spoke, Kanin Palace stood up and said in a deep voice to General Umezu Mijiro, "I'll tell you good news!" After my recital. His Majesty has agreed to reorganize the Korean garrison into the new Kwantung Army! And you, will be the commander-in-chief of this new unit! ”

Umezu Mijiro was stunned at first when he heard this, and then he was ecstatic! And his excitement had not yet passed, Xianyuan Palace continued: "And! His Majesty has agreed to upgrade the new Kwantung Army to the General Army! And expand and increase the number of other divisions as your combat power! My request to you is that you must hold the North Korean defense! This is important for the Empire, understand?! ”

"Hail!! His subordinates will definitely live up to the trust of His Majesty and His Royal Highness! Long live His Majesty the Emperor! Long live the Great Japanese Empire!! ”

After the battle of Shanghai, the whole of China fell into an eerie calm. The Japanese army did not launch a larger attack for the time being, and at the same time, the Japanese army in the Qingdao area, which was originally noisy, also stopped its own attack.

Chiang was able to calmly withdraw his administrative structure to Wuhan, and at the same time let all the troops withdrawn from Shanghai regather in Nanjing!

"I don't agree!! As the national capital, what kind of system did you abandon like this?! What should the international community think of us?! I absolutely disagree with such abandonment!! ”

Jiang Zhongzheng's face was very ugly, and he said in a deep voice to the people present: "Nanjing is the national capital, and it is also the place where the mausoleum of the former prime minister is located!" Don't throw it away easily! We should hold on! ”

Falkenhausen shrugged his shoulders at Jiang Zhongzheng and said helplessly: "Yes, emotionally speaking, we shouldn't give up Nanjing." However, from the perspective of strategic situation, we cannot hold Nanjing at all. ”

"Now that the battle in Shanghai has just been lost, morale has suffered a huge blow. And our most elite troops were lost in Shanghai. If we continue, it is simply impossible for us to win the battle for the defense of Nanjing. ”

"The best plan now is to abandon Nanjing and gather troops to strengthen training, equip them with armaments, and then fight the Japanese army......"

Jiang Zhongzheng's face was quite ugly, how could he not know that this was the best plan?! But at the same time, he also thought that if he persisted, he would encounter intervention from the United States and other countries.

The meeting broke up unhappily, but then Jiang Zhongzheng reconvened the meeting. This time he did not involve Falkenhausen, and most of the bigwigs from various departments were found. Among them, there are Bai Chongxi, a representative of the Gui family, Tang Shengzhi, a representative of the Hunan family, and others.

"The national capital, this must be defended!" Jiang Zhongzheng said in a deep voice to everyone: "If you can keep one more day, that is, the nation will add an extra layer of brilliance." If we can hold on for more than half a month, the internal and external situation will change greatly, and our field army will be able to respond as scheduled, and we will not be surrounded by the enemy!"

As he spoke, Jiang Zhongzheng took out a copy of the American "New York Times" to everyone. It featured Roosevelt's speech, in which he made a strong reference to Japan's aggression against China.

And stated that "if necessary, the necessary measures will be taken to put an end to this violation of the international peace!" ”

"Our actions have obviously been justified by the international community!" Speaking of which, Jiang Zhongzhenglian's face lit up! He said in a deep voice to the people present: "So, we should make persistent efforts!" As long as we can prove that we will win, I believe that international assistance to us and sanctions against Japan will happen! ”

I have to say that Jiang Zhongzheng's idea and even the entire Nanjing government from beginning to end is to rely on foreigners for dinner. This kind of thinking has never even changed.

Jiang Zhongzheng proposed to defend the city, and Tang Shengzhi expressed his support. But everyone remained silent, either looking at the ceiling or bowing their heads in silence.

Bai Chongxi and Liu Fei, who were representatives of the Gui family, were not hypocritical, and said directly to Jiang Zhongzheng: "I don't think I can hold it." Rather than wasting troops like this, it is better to consider fighting with terrain advantage after intensive training......"

"If you don't guard me!!" Jiang Zhongzheng was suddenly angry, and said to the silent crowd like thunder: "If I sacrifice, you will continue to resist Japan!" Isn't it just a war?! I haven't hit?! ”rs！！！
